CANNOT SEE THE COLUMN IS IN WHICH ORDER
Hello,
I am working with very big data by using VLOOKUP. While I am choosing the table array, I need to the small notification on the attached photo which I was able to before:....x5C, therefore I was writing 5:0 on the VLOOKUP formula. But now I cannot count everytime the last column that I marked is in which order like A B C ... X Y Z. How can I make it this notification appear again?

- JMB17Bronze ContributorI don't know how to fix the row/column counter, but another option could be to use the columns function in the formula instead of counting the columns yourself. For example,
=VLOOKUP(G1,A1:E10,COLUMNS(A1:C1),FALSE)Hi JMB17
could you share sample data, what I can see your are trying to get the column number from the header value. this might be helpful for you.
